• Github
• BitBucket
• GitLab

• The R Community is active on Github
• The more often you use it, the more often you can use others' code and data
• Easily import from Github repos into your workflow
• Simple to run Shiny Apps locally with runGithub function

Github loves Markdown. Even Rmarkdown.

Renders it as HTML.

Turn http://github.com/username/reponame/index.html

Into http://username.github.io/reponame/index.html

After uploading your repo, click on Settings

Change the Source from None to master branch or master branch\docs (depending on where you want your root to be)

• Don't include files larger than 100 mb
• Don't include your keys or passwords
• Try to exclude any extraneous files like r history
